CANADA, Nova Scotia. William IV. King of Great Britain, 1830-1837. CU Halfpenny Token (28mm, 8.23 g, 6h). Dated 1832, though countermarked 1841. Laureate and draped bust left; 1841 stamped below / Thistle. Charlton NS-1D1. Brown surfaces. VF.

This unusual post-mint counterstamp of an 1841 date is perhaps related to the creation of the Province of Canada in that year. The Province was as part of a series of reforms following the rebellions in 1837-1838, and was created from the colonies of Upper and Lower Canada.
